Is AVID the right fit for you??
The Typical AVID Student:
Do you have a strong desire to go to college? Do you have a "C" average or higher?
Are you ready for the rigor of advanced coursework? Are you ready to commit to becoming the best version of yourself?
Are you ready to join a culture of other students committed to high expectations?
If so, AVID may be where you belong!!

Citizenship (No serious discipline issues allowed)
Attendance (Good attendance is a MUST)
Desire and Determination
First in the family to attend college
Historically underrepresented in 4-year colleges/universities
